In re: Joseph Shelton v. ( 2015 )

UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 15-1816
In re: JOSEPH KENNARD SHELTON
Petitioner.
On Petition for Extraordinary Writ.
(No. 1:11-cr-00397-WO-1)
Submitted: October 20, 2015 Decided: October 22, 2015
Before MOTZ, KEENAN, and THACKER, Circuit Judges.
Petition denied by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Joseph Kennard Shelton, Petitioner Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Joseph Kennard Shelton petitions for a writ of error coram
nobis. “As a remedy of last resort, the writ of error coram
nobis is granted only where an error is of the most fundamental
character and there exists no other available remedy.” United
States v. Akinsade, 686 F.3d 248, 252 (4th Cir. 2012) (internal
quotation marks omitted). Shelton has failed to meet these
standards. Accordingly, we grant leave to proceed in forma
pauperis and deny the petition. We dispense with oral argument
because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented
in the materials before this court and argument would not aid
the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
